‘Orange Is the New Black’ Season 2, Episode 9, : TV Recap

After a hug and a request from Red to stop by her family’s restaurant in Queens, a bend-over-naked security strip-search and rules run-down (the big one: no drinking!), Piper’s 48-hour furlough begins.

Her hippied-out little brother picks her up in his green bumper-stickered station wagon, and she’s off to her grandmother’s funeral. But first, an awkward stop at Larry’s house. Or is it still Piper-and-Larry’s house?

Most of Piper’s belongings are in sacks in the living room but she hardly cares. Instead, she’s focused on all the little niceties and pleasant smells that make up yuppie life outside of prison. Coffee from a French press. The smell of Anthropologie candles. “Oooh the upholstery is really good,” she says as she sits on a couch.
